CAUTION:
- Never wrap the starter cord around your
hand.
- When pulling the starter rope, do not
use the full extent of the rope as this can
cause the rope to break.
- Do not let starter rope snap back. Hold the
starter handle (14, Fig.1) and let the rope
rewind slowly.
WARNING: Once the engine is warmed
up do not use the choke to start up again.
WARNING: Use the semi-acceleration
device only in the phase of starting the engine
to cold.

BREAKING-IN THE ENGINE

The engine reaches the maximum power after
5÷8 hours of activity.
During this period of breaking-in do not use the
engine at wide open throttle without load, to avoid
excessive functioning stress.
WARNING! - During the breaking-in
period do not vary the carburetion to obtain a
presumed power increment; the engine can be
damaged.
NOTE: It is normal for smoke to be emitted
from a new engine during and after first use.

6. STOPPING THE ENGINE

Set the throttle lever to idle position (18, Fig. 1)
and wait a few seconds to let the engine cool off.
Turn off the engine, putting the ON/OFF switch
(17) in the STOP position.

7. USING THE MACHINE

PROHIBITED USE

WARNING: Avoid kickout which can
result in serious injury. Kickout is the
sideward or sudden forward motion of the
machine occurring when the blade contacts
any object such as a log or stone, or when the
wood closes in and pinches the saw blade in
the cut. Contacting a foreign object can also
result in loss of brush cutter control.
WARNING! - Always follow the safety
precautions. The brush cutter must only be
used to trim grass material. Cut wood only with
appropriate saw blade. Do not cut metal,
plastics, masonry, or non-wood building
materials. Do not use the brush cutter as a lever
to lift, move or break objects, nor lock it on
fixed supports. It is forbidden to apply tools or
applications that are not the ones indicated by
the manufacturer onto the brush cutter's power
take-off.
WARNING: When using rigid blades,
avoid cutting close to fences, sides of
buildings, tree trunks, stones or other such
objects that could cause the brush cutter to
kick out or could cause damage to the blade.
We recommends use of the nylon line heads
for such jobs. In addition, be alert to an
increased possibility of ricochets in such
situations.
WARNING: Never use of a brush cutter
above ground level or with the cutting
attachment perpendicular to the ground.
Never use the brushcutter for cutting grass or
trimming hedges.
WARNING: If the blade loosens after
being properly tightened,
immediately. The retaining nut may be worn
or damaged and should be replaced. Never
use unauthorized parts to secure the blade. If
the blade continues to loosen, see your dealer.
Never use a brush cutter with a loose blade.
Work Area Precautions
• Always cut with both feet on solid ground to
prevent being pulled off balance.
• Make sure you can move and stand safely.
